Hey Candy, good point about our babies being Geminis - I'd never even thought of that, but it would explain a lot! Hey, I can totally understand why you're feeling down - that sucks about your friend and your folks. This motherhood thing can be extremely isolating as it is, without that sort of stuff adding to it.

Bath, what a fantastic idea that was at Verity's school...I'm sure they teach kids all the stats and they go in one ear and out the other, but to explain it so visually would have been very effective, I'm sure.

Body image - well, I have always been an A cup, and my pgs have left me a B cup, so that is something. Bear in mind that I didn't BF past 2 weeks either, but I won't go into all the emotional issues I have with that, or I'll be typing all day...basically I feel like my boobs failed on their one big mission in life, so what's the point of even having them? Anyway, didn't put on too much weight this pg, but I have no muscle tone in my abs, so I still look a good 4/5 months pg, which is the thing that gets me down. I'm going to a wedding a week tomorrow, and I'll be wearing my tubigrip under my dress to try and hold it in a bit!
